Master of Strange Dao

Chapter 1657 - 446: Beggar Edition Sleeve Universe, Have You Decided Yet? (5k)_3

If the Divine Skills are converted into Secret Techniques, then that book list becomes the Secret Technique Classics.If one haphazardly finishes learning and seeks out Yang, Yang will likely point this out directly and then ridicule him for hundreds of years later on.

But if Yu Ziqing truly studies with dedication, mastering every skill and integrating each one, then he will discover that the Secret Technique has already been learned.

Yang can still say with a mysterious and unfathomable look, "The secret manual was given to you from the start."

Either way, I won't lose.

Yu Ziqing felt a bit regretful for not finding Yang.

Looking at a massive rock in the distance, he held one hand behind his back and with a flick of his wide sleeve, saw that massive rock fly over, shrinking continuously until it became the size of a fist and disappeared into his sleeve.

With a flick of his wide sleeve, the fist-sized massive rock flew out, growing against the wind, finally restoring its original state and heavily falling to the ground.

This was upgraded from the previous fake Sleeve Universe to an inferior version of Sleeve Universe.

After spending a few days at home, a letter arrived from the Big Island.

Yu Ziqing was full of anticipation, thinking: Has the teleportation gate been completed?

Upon opening, he found it was a letter on behalf of the Cloud Whale.

In essence, the letter asked if Yu Ziqing had found the fourth Ancient Demon bloodline awakener he was helping to search for. The Cloud Whale felt that the fourth Ancient Demon bloodline awakener felt increasingly strange.

Yu Ziqing then suddenly remembered this matter.

After Jiu Nian's demise, he had cast this matter aside.

Originally, according to the initial plan, or rather the Cloud Whale's initial plan, defeating Jiu Nian was a long-term process.

First, they needed to find the other Ancient Demon bloodline awakeners. After gathering four, they would wait for them to grow, then slowly find the power to deal with Jiu Nian.

Even if they couldn't defeat Jiu Nian, capturing Jiu Nian to continue suppressing under the Mountain Abyss would be acceptable.

According to the information transmitted through the bloodline, not a single one could be missing.

Who would have thought, in the end, there indeed were four.

But the four were Yang, Yang-destroying Devil, Yu Ziqing, and Earth Deity Origin.

Strictly speaking, none of these four are truly human.

Four, none of them human, isn't this enough in itself?

After it was over, Yu Ziqing naturally forgot to search for the fourth Ancient Demon.

Forget it, since he had agreed, he might as well go and take a look.

Having not found a trace, who knows if they have already fallen long ago.

Coincidentally, Yang had gone to the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land, likely aiming for the large amounts of rank fragments scattered there.

Better to go have a look. These Dao Cultivators truly fear nothing when conditions permit.

Yang is the epitome of boldness, having his eyes on Jiu Nian from a very early time.

Back then, Yu Ziqing thought Yang merely wanted to eliminate Jiu Nian, never imagining Yang had intended to eliminate Jiu Nian and simultaneously devour him whole from the start.

With a legitimate task to do, Yu Ziqing bid farewell to the village chief confidently.

Two tasks needed to be done personally by him.

But this time, Yu Ziqing brought three Tokens.

Cloud Whale gave him a baby tooth, Little Merfolk gave him a scale, and the Bodhi Tree Demon gave him a Bodhi Fruit.

With these three Tokens, surely he couldn't fail to find it again.

Heading straight to the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land, he contacted Yang and found him there.

To Yu Ziqing's surprise, Yang had not deployed that Divine Artifact Array Plate, nor attempted to refine the rank fragments here into it. He was still wandering around the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land.

"Why have you come here, not planning to try refining those rank fragments with the Divine Artifact?"

"Yes, and no."

"Hmm?"

"Do you remember after the Great Sun Dominating the Sky, the northern Wilderness began to cool rapidly, getting colder year by year?"

"Yes, I remember, those rank fragments are the main cause, right?"

"It's part of the reason, but not the whole story."

"Please, don't speak half-truths, don't act like a Riddler."

"The reasons are complex; do you remember the West Sea to the west of the Wilderness, west of the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land?"

The West Sea is desolate, with almost nothing of value, and it's too far away, so there are few people there.

According to my continuous deduction, the West Sea is the main cause.

The impact may be greater than the factor of rank fragments here.

The West Sea, Southern Sea, and East Sea are all interconnected.

Long ago, before the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land became what it is now.

I personally went to explore the West Sea for a long time, at that time, it was not as barren as it is today.

The first time, after the Yang Devil fell here, creating the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land, it marked the beginning of the West Sea's desolation.

Afterward, through great changes that went unrecorded, it never became as barren as it is today.

But after the Great Sun Dominating the Sky and another major transformation, the West Sea became akin to a Dead Sea.

"Huh... and then?" Yu Ziqing was befuddled: "So what?"

"Do you recall under the thick ice of the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land, there are many enormous cavities?"

"I remember."

"The original fragile balance was disrupted by the Great Sun Dominating the Sky.

In the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land, a vast amount of water vapor poured downward.

Originally the hot and cold ocean currents of the West Sea circulated repetitively, forcibly interrupted.

In addition to the factors like the rank fragments within the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land itself.

All these combined, triggered a Major Cold wave.

And it was particularly intense.

Ordinary living beings can't withstand such drastic changes."

"Stop explaining to me in detail, it's giving me a headache. Just tell me the conclusion, what are you planning to do?" Yu Ziqing, with a headache, didn't understand the ocean currents or balance.

"I'm not sure yet if refining the rank fragments here into the Divine Artifact Infinite might worsen the situation."

"How bad could it get?"

"Uncertain."

Yu Ziqing pondered for a moment.

"You said just now that the West Sea is already like a Dead Sea?"

"Yes."

"Then if you solved the problem in the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land now, could it revive the West Sea?"

"It should help.

But the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land itself and the Wilderness, along with Jinlan Mountain at the center of the Wilderness, would definitely be affected.

Most importantly, the greatest impact should be on Dazhen, which would certainly be positive for them.

The temperature would rise, perhaps even, the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land, is actually Dazhen's territory.

If Dazhen reclaims this territory, it would directly border the Wilderness extensively.

Yang paused slightly, squinting at Yu Ziqing.

"They would easily become self-sufficient and begin an unstoppable rise."
